Embracing Digitalisation

We have collaborated with the Indian School of Business to offer a wellcurated digital leadership programme for all our General Managers and Deputy General Managers. Through this programme, they have been empowered to utilise their professional experience in wider ways and exposed to concepts at the cutting-edge of leadership research. In addition to this, we have also initiated a multi-ATI general awareness intervention called Microcapsules and integrated digital and hybrid learning tools.

Reservations and Equal Opportunities

We are of the belief that every individual has the right to work and equal opportunities. In line with this, we diligently follow the directives set by the Government of India on Reservation Policy for SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PwBD. We have a respectable representation of SCs, STs, OBCs and PwBDs across all levels. In addition to this, we have also implemented reservation applicable to ‘economically weaker sections’ in direct recruitment from the 1st of February 2019.
